This looks a bit like the puppy version of what in my house is called the No Mas Paw. Francesco makes it after I have held him for approximately twenty seconds, to tell me that it is time to put him down. But he always uses his left hand.

One time, I was lying on the couch (recovering from a flu. A week of ice cream, rich foods, video games, good movies, and not having to lift a finger for any of it…I think I’ll go ask people to sneeze on me), and called our Chihuahua over to give her a treat. Right when she hopped on my belly I popped ‘her’ treat in my mouth.

She kept poking my mouth with her paw, just slapping me repeatedly with it.
